It is a bit far from Pradollano, exactly 3 km, but the lifts that connect you to the rest of the station are 5 minutes away. There are no bus shops nearby and the hostel closes at 24:00.

This small hostel for 59 people belongs to the University of Granada, but is managed by the active tourism company Nevadensis.

There are double rooms with washbasin and multiple rooms with bunk beds. Toilets and showers are located in the corridor.
